Thanks for all the kudos, it would seem as if painting the door handles and getting some mirrors and painting them red would do the trick. I am really happy with this car, it has 330.000kms(260000miles) on it and is also been driven every Canadaian winter and still has orig. paint and zero rust. I love the way it looks, but I still think it's missing something, and I can't figure it out. Maybe all it needs is some race miles this year to finish the look(hehe).

i say paint the handles red, paint the B-pillars between the windows black, and ditch the mudflaps. other than that, it looks hot.

really, your car looks good. the black lip and black hood are fine. it's up to personal style whether or not to leave the mirrors black. if they were the spoon mirrors, i would leave them unpainted on a red car, but would definitely paint them if they were on a white car. that's just me. for your car, i think it would look better with the mirrors painted red. as for your door handles and sideskirts, the car would probably look better w.them painted red, but not really necessary. i think different rims would look better as those wheels are pretty plain, but if they're the real SW88s, you obviously have function as priority over appearance.
